Sonia, Rahul Gandhi challenge ED's National Herald plea citing PMLA requirements
- Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi filed replies on 18 September seeking dismissal of ED's challenge in the National Herald case.
- They argued PMLA proceedings cannot be based on a private complaint, citing BJP leader Subramanian Swamy's 2013 filing.
- The Gandhis cited the Supreme Court's 2023 Vijay Madanlal Chaudhary ruling, requiring a registered scheduled offence.
- They also questioned ED's "lightning speed" in filing its revision petition within 24 hours of the trial court's order.
